Mission Impossible

Chapter 33~ Home

CLARA'S POV

I woke up from my long nap to find Harry calmly sitting next to me, looking out of the window.

"Do you miss it?" I asked Harry, who looked at me with a puzzled expression. "London?".

"Yeah", he said. "But I'm going home now", he said with a smile on his face.

"So why London?" I questioned Harry more. His smile only grew.

"Well since you're banned from going to London, I figured they wouldn't look for you there", he told me and I rolled my eyes.

"It was one time...", I trailed off, getting lost in my own thoughts as I remembered that trip to London.

"Tell me the story and I'll make it worth your while", Harry told me in a seductive voice, leaning it a little. I leaned in to meet him, despite the small pain in my ribs.

"You weren't that good anyways", I told him before pulling away again and leaving him leaned forward. His eyebrow raised as he ran his tongue across the inside of his cheek.

"One day I'll remind you just how good I am", he said before leaning back and closing his eyes for a nap. I blushed and rolled my eyes even though he couldn't see. For the remaining time I just observed the people around me.

There was a couple who obviously resented each other, as the girl looked out the window the whole time with a sour look on her face and the boy was on his phone texting someone, tilting his screen away from his girlfriend like he was hiding something. And then there were two business partners who were obviously sleeping together. There were the stolen glances, the hand brushes that lasted longer than they should have, and the shy smiles they gave me when they caught me smirking at them. As I turned away to mind my own business, the pilot came on to tell us we were about to land. At the sound of his voice, Harry woke up, looking more refreshed than he was before, with a goofy grin on his face. I had that same shy smile the secret couple had on their faces as I turned away before he could see me watching him.

Fifteen minutes later we were off the plane and calling a cab to come pick us up. Another 15 minutes and we pulling up in front of a quaint looking house, and Harry helped me out of the cab. He grabbed all our bags and lead the way to the door as the driver pulled away. When we reached the door I spoke up.

"So what is this? A safe house?" I asked him as he put some bags down to reach his hand up and knock on the door.

"Something like that", he said before the door swung up, revealing a small woman who looked similar to Harry.

The woman wrapped his arms around him as he smiled brightly at her.

"Hi Mum".
